A group of Toronto-area Catholics calling themselves “lamb seekers” have embraced ancient contemplative prayer as a way of healing from traumatic life experiences and as a tool in attracting people to the church.

The Catholic Register, Canada’s national Catholic weekly based in Toronto, tells the story of a woman who helped establish the “lamb seekers” and the good that has come from their practice of the ancient contemplative prayer.

This type of prayer has helped one woman survive poverty, a broken marriage and sexual abuse as a child.
